Thanks, guys. And just in case you're tired of all my bragging, Waterstone's didin't want it. So there was bad news as well as good (must give both sides of the story...)Or, as the verification word has just put it: dowspo

Waterstones DIDN'T WANT IT? As my children would say WTF???Excellent to be in Tesco's though, and Smiths and all those other places WHERE IT IS!!!It will be very sweet revenge when the book's such a success that W's have to start stocking it.

Hi David - thanks very much for that, but shouldn't I be looking West and not East...?

Hi Alis - yes, I was disappointed about Waterstones, but my youngest son is a management consultant specialising in retail, and he says that (I think) £1 in every £9 we spend is spent in Tescos (not necessarily on books!), so I'm grateful for that. How's the novel going? and the Son?

About Me

I live with my husband in Devizes in Wiltshire where I spend my time writing, reading, riding (I am the lucky owner of a beautiful horse, Blue), and keeping up with my four children and an increasing number of small grandchildren (eight so far). I was for many years a nurse and a Relate counsellor. I have taught creative writing both at a local college and a prison, and I review a wide variety of items - including books - for the Amazon Vine programme.I write to death row prisoners in America, being a life-long opponent jof the death penalty. And I spend too much time blogging..
